After the hearing, Greene held a news conference at which she threatened to identify some of the men who had abused the women. (Greene says that she didn’t know those names herself but that she could have gotten them from the victims.) Trump called Greene to voice his displeasure. Greene was in her Capitol Hill office, and according to a staff member, everyone in the suite of rooms could hear him yelling at her as she listened to him on speakerphone. Greene says she expressed her perplexity over his intransigence. According to Greene, Trump replied, “My friends will get hurt.”

When she urged Trump to invite some of Epstein’s female victims to the Oval Office, she says, he angrily informed her that they had done nothing to merit the honor. It would be the last conversation Greene and Trump would ever have.

The shocking news is not that Trump wants to protect sexual predators and pedophiles. The shocker is that Trump is so delusional that he thinks he has friends.

That's funny. : ) And so true. He has spent a lifetime trying to buy friends and respect. And now he has his phony sycophantic 'friends' who are only there because he has managed to grasp power. His 'friends' are much like all the chintzy gold gewgaws he has besmirched the Whitehouse with...a phony veneer.

And, let's be honest, the overriding reason Trump wants MTG and everyone else to shut up about Epstein is because he is very much implicated in all the nastiness and criminality.
